How to add fast charging to your iPhone X/8/8 Plus for $41 instead of the $74 Apple charges

Apple’s new iPhone X, iPhone 8, and iPhone 8 Plus are the first iPhones ever to include wireless charging, which is by far the most convenient way to refuel your smartphone. Wireless charging is also much slower than wired charging though, especially since Apple’s new iPhone lineup doesn’t support the fastest available wireless charging standard. The latest iPhones also supposed wired fast charging though, and that’s definitely the way to go if you want to power up your phone as quickly as possible. You’ll need a 30W wall adapter and a USB-C to Lightning cable though, and you’ll pay $74 if you buy them from Apple. If you get the UGREEN USB Type-C 30W Wall Charger along with Apple’s USB-C to Lightning Cable though, you’ll only spend $41 total.

Here are some bullet points from the UGREEN product page:

30W USB C Power Delivery Charging: The UGREEN 30W(5V/3A, 9V/2A, 15V/2A or 20V/1.5A) USB‑C Power Adapter is equipped with advanced PD technology and provides fast charging for any of your USB Type C-enabled device(USB C cable or lightning to usb c cable is not included ). We suggest pairing it with devices that support Power Delivery function for maximum charging performance. Your iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, or iPhone X could be fully charged in 100 minutes, and 12″ Macbook in 2 hours.
